Mini-Post - Day 16 (the rest)

The rest of yesterday went well.  I ate a well proportioned dinner (though I wanted to eat much more) and a small, yummily indulgent serving of pumpkin cheesecake.


Now, I've woken up to a new day, and it's a lovely one.  I love bright, crisp Fall mornings. 


People always talk about Spring bringing  a sense of renewal and hope and the like.  But for me, it's always been the Fall.  There's something about that cool breeze, comfy sweaters and scarves, apple pies and acorn squash that brings me such a sense of comfort and joy, with new beginnings in the air.  And, let's be honest, I am always overjoyed to say 'goodbye!' to bathing suits.  


So, happy morning, loves.  Happy Fall morning, at that.  

"To awaken each morning with a smile brightening my face; to greet the day with reverence for the opportunities it contains; to approach my work with a clean mind; to hold ever before me, even in the doing of little things, the ultimate purpose toward which I am working; to meet men and women with laughter on my lips and love in my heart; to be gentle, kind, and courteous through all the hours; to approach the night with weariness that ever woos sleep and the joy that comes from work well done - this is how I desire to waste wisely my days." --Thomas Dekker

all love,
